Lot's of Yahoo has been scrambled, for more than a few days... sent
an e-mail from my regular account, because the system wouldn't take
my password, even when I requested a new one, and tried that..
response was the databases are out of service, but should be back up
soon...

Excuse me... a DOS attack does not effect databases, and what about
those screwy 5-day stock market charts they haven't been able to fix
in almost a month, except for a day or two...

Remember how we started getting the sneaky suspicion that hackers and
viruses would be blamed for y2k failures? Now denial of services
attacks are being blamed for "corrupted databases", etc...

Anyone else getting a sneaky suspicion that they're running out of
fingers for the dike, and anything, anything, but y2k must be
blamed... after all, insurance companies will cover malicious hacker
attacks, but not y2k failures...

The excuses are starting to fray around the edges, aren't
they...Toronto Stock Exchange had tpo close early today because of a
computer glitch. Second day in a row they had problems processing
trades...not good.
